Backlog January 2017. Unclear amber body under a fluffy beige head – gusher. Aroma is light roasted, malty and funky. Taste is sweet, dark malt, acidity and dry fruit. Medium body and same sweet & sour aftertaste. Drinkable but perhaps not exactly hos this beer was intended to be?

Nice brown/amber color with a fine tan head. Sour funky fruity aroma. Quite fresh and nice. Fine body and a fine smooth carbonation. Balanced sourness vs sweetness/bitterness. Sour, fruity, some spices and some roasted notes. Well masked alcohol. I really liked this one.

Bottle. An unclear, reddishy dark brown beer with a minimal-sized dark beige head. Strange sourish, berryish and lighlty roasted aroma with some dried fruits. Rather herbal. Herbal, spiced aroma with roasted malts, berries and dark dried fruits. Some alcohol warmth, medium to full body, with soft carbonation. A really, really strange one. There’s something interesting with it, but it’s certainly not a beer I could drink more of. 130430

Bottle at the ChrisO Snow Tasting, London - many thanks to that funky man Henrik. Pours cloudy brown with a creamy, beige head. Definitely some tangy dark malts in the nose, some dark fruits. Medium sweet flavor, some boozy kick, sourish fruits. Medium bodied with fine carbonation. Good funky finish with some earth, dirt, tangy dark malts, hints of rubber. Not a stunner, but it’s acceptable.

Bottle at ChrisO Snow tasting, thanks to Henrik, 20/01/13. Very dark mahogony brown with a thin tan head that clears edgeward. Nose carries dark malts, piss, sour tones, light cocoa. Taste comprises light chocolate, toffee, sour and tarte, a little funky brett. Medium bodied with bite, soft carbonation, sweet finish. Ok stuff.

Bottle at ChrisO Snow Tasting, thanks to Henrik. It pours very dark red with a small beige head. The nose is over-ripe dark fruit, red berry, earth, brett, spice and damp wood. The taste is dark fruit, cherry, raspberry, raisin, yoghurt, earth, wood, brett, jam, metal and spice with a dry, tangy finish. Medium body and average carbonation. An interesting brew, but slightly unbalanced and not overly drinkable...
